I am not positive what exactally you mean by hot plug and play but from what I understand hot plug and play under linux is comparable to that of Windows and Mac. Hotplug comes with most distributions and can configure USB devices on the fly and may work for other interfaces. Cardctl does the same for PCMCIA. For other devices a bit of finesse is all that is usualy needed. In fact with tools like RedHat's kudzu it is getting easier to dynamically add, remove, and configure hardware under linux.
